Abstract: Art has been studied as a facilitator in recovery, quality of life and well-being of people with mental illness. In this sense, Sincronias project resulted from the synergy between Associação Nova Aurora na Reabilitação e Reintegração Psicossocial - ANARP, a psychosocial rehabilitation institution for people with schizophrenia, and the School of Education of Polytechnic Institute of Porto. This project aims not only to provide artistic experimentation opportunities and cultural experiences through various means - Painting, Drawing, Ceramics, Sculpture, Design, Photography and Video ... - but also provide its participants a set of key transversal competences for social inclusion of particularly vulnerable groups. In this article, we intend to present the need that led to the creation of the project, as well as its design and implementation, and also the impact that Sincronias is already having on the various stakeholders.Keywords: Arts, Social Inclusion, Mental Illness, Recovery
